Does the corporate world bore you already? Are you thinking of quitting but do not have a plan how to earn an income? Does your current 9-5 job punish you every day? The internet has a lot of ways and ideas to give you in order to earn money for a living.

You'll find many suggestions on online business opportunities. Some are legit and some are suspect. You need to be able to assess them with a logical mind to be able to filter out the ones that do not deserve your attention. If you want something that has the potential to give you an income big enough to allow you to give up your day job, consider the following ideas for an Internet business.

1. Online selling – You can set up an e-commerce site or even just sell through places like eBay and Etsy. You can source your merchandise from other people or simply make your own items to sell.

2. Affiliate marketing – You'll be marketing other people's products or services and learning through commission. You can use your email, blog, and other social media to tap into this opportunity.

3. Online consultation service – Do you consider yourself an authority in an industry or niche with the necessary expertise and experience to dole out coaching or advice and be paid for it? If you do, this could be a great gig for you.

4. Network marketing – Now, do not jump to conclusions. This opportunity got some bad press when pyramid schemes came to light. Network marketing is a legitimate business opportunity that involves actual goods like health products from Amway or 4Life. A pyramid scheme, on the other hand, is simply a money game. You can basically use the Internet to recruit people for your downline as well as sell products.

5. Online franchise – Whether you'll be providing a service or selling products, this is a solid investment idea with an established name, system, and support as its primary edge.

6. Stock photos – If you have an eye of a photographer then you can venture in selling your photos to legit stock / photo websites. The earnings are not guaranteed high in the beginning the process is advancing in the long run.

Whatever opportunity you end up choosing, be prepared to invest time and effort in it. In some cases, some capital may be necessary, too. At any rate, your commitment and dedication would be paramount to the success of your online venture.
